There are many reasons why the Russians gunned so hard for Trump; here is a brief list:

  1. Donald Trump will repeal the sanctions imposed by the Obama administration following Russia’s annexation of the Crimean peninsula in 2014. These sanctions make it difficult for Putin and his fellow oligarchs to launder money out of the country.
  2. Trump has declared his desire to be “friendly” with Russia, which would manifest itself as turning a blind eye to the Kremlin’s overseas plots and reducing the likelihood that Russia’s aggressive expansionism in Eastern Europe and the Middle East will be challenged. This will give the Russian military free rein to use excessive force and commit war crimes with impunity. Thousands will die.
  3. Trump has declared his intention to pursue an isolationist foreign policy and the withdrawal of American overseas influence, creating a power vacuum that will certainly be filled by either Moscow or Beijing.
  4. Trump is an impulsive narcissist with little savvy, little interest in international affairs, and will be easily manipulated into supporting the interests of Russia.
  5. Trump has already declared his intention to pursue a protofascistic domestic policy that includes muffling the press, repressing free speech, increasing the power of law enforcement and undermining democracy, which conveniently removes an existential threat to Vladimir Putin’s own dictatorial regime.
